Right, so Emacs hangs completely. So it seems these are two different bugs. > Lars, my last question was: is it ok to mimic a bad connection by > unplugging the USB stick? Or is this a different case? It's difficult to say. Network connection problems are notoriously difficult to emulate easily. When you unplug the USB stick, the OS is usually notified, and can do... stuff. Most network problems are, however, that traffic is just goes missing somewhere, so you have to fiddle with firewall rules to mimic it. But if the USB stick removal thing reliably hangs your Emacs for you, that's a good way to test things. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no/
